Winter projects
Just wondering what y'all are doing to pass the time before spring gets here...I've begun doing some "projects" to help pass the time. I've started by ordering the front signal relocation kit and the auxillary brake kit and smoked lenses for all four lights, along with the amber and red bulbs. I then plan on replacing the upper belt guard with a chrome version, the side covers with a color matched set and adding a luggage rack and layback license plate mount. Maybe I'll replace the pegs when that's all done. What projects are you working on??? Can't wait for spring to get here!!!

RE: Winter projects
I was actually waiting for it to get cold enough here so that I would stop riding long enough to work on the bike (it's cold enough now averaging 30-40 last few days). Let's see, got new mini-apes, riser, speedo mount that I'm working on, cutting down the wiring harness to the lights to shorten that bundle and lengthening the switch wires to run inside the bars. Might relocate the ignition and coil possibly which of course would require me making a new mount for them. If money (and the Mrs.) allows I may pull tins and send them out for custom paint. Probably will tackle some other stuff but not sure what just yet. Did I mention mine is an 06 that is only 6 mo. old.

No bike projects, but I did reset the neck angle on an archtop guitar I've been messing around with.

RE: Winter projects
I bought a 4.5 tank, lots of chrome, and a barebones seat. I still have some cash left on a gift card so I am looking for more chrome.
It's ready to go into paint when ever I decide on the color though.
